Zamfara State Government, on Tuesday, denied budgeting N19 billion for Governor Dauda Lawal’s kitchenware. The State Commissioner for Budget and Economic Planning, Abdulmalik Gajam, at a media briefing on Tuesday in Gusau, described the information as mischievous.
He said, “I would like to clarify that the information being circulated in this regard on social media is unverified. “A government that reduced its spending to save for the better future of the state cannot budget N19billion for the governor’s kitchen and other canteen equipment. “ Zamfara Government under Lawal is running an open door policy, we welcome media and other stakeholders to verify and access information on any issues instead of spreading unverified information.
“Also, the media outfits need to be responsible for information concerning images of the government to be published.” Gajam lamented that the information being circulated was capable of triggering the mind of Zamfara people to react to something that was mischievous. He called on media houses to always verify information and ensure dishing out only authentic information to the public.
